# How do I export all the data in my account?

Use this guide when you need to export donor, recipient, donation, or sponsorship records from the pages where you work with that data. Each page has an **Export / Import** dropdown that lets you download a CSV of the current view or send the export by email.

> **Note:** Exports include the data that matches the current table view — visible columns, active filters, search terms, sorting, and the selected date range (where applicable). Adjust the view before exporting so the CSV contains the records and columns you need.

## Donors

1. Open **Donors** from the sidebar.
2. Choose the donor view or saved view that contains the donors you want to export.
3. Click **Export / Import** and select your option:
   * **Current page CSV** — downloads the rows currently shown on the page.
   * **All as CSV** — starts a background export of all donors matching the current view and downloads the file when ready.
   * **All sent to email** — starts a background export and emails a download link to the signed-in admin.

## Recipients

1. Open **Programs** from the sidebar, then select the program whose recipients you want to export.
2. Choose the recipient view or saved view.
3. Click **Export / Import** and select your option:
   * **Current page CSV**
   * **All as CSV**
   * **All sent to email**

## Donations

## How exports work

All server-side exports ( **All as CSV** and **All sent to email** ) are processed in the background so you can continue working. A progress section appears at the top of the page showing the current status: **Queued** → **Processing** → **Ready** (or **Failed** if something goes wrong).

<figure><img src="/files/I9hHGmd6nkf5IMgsWQEe" alt=""><figcaption><p>The export progress section shows the current status and provides a download button when the export is ready.</p></figcaption></figure>

When the export is ready:

* **All as CSV** starts a direct download automatically.
* **All sent to email** sends an email with a download link to the signed-in admin's email address.

### What is included in the export

The exported CSV reflects the current table view:

* **Columns** — only the fields you have chosen to show in the table are included.
* **Filters** — active filters are applied, so only matching records are exported.
* **Search** — the current search term is respected.
* **Sorting** — records follow the current sort order (where supported).
* **Date range** — donations and other date-filtered views use the selected range.

### Email delivery

The **All sent to email** option delivers the export to the signed-in admin's email address. An organization can turn export completion emails on or off from **Email & sender** in Organization settings. When turned off, only the **All as CSV** option is available. See [Email Settings](/guides/getting-started/quick-start-guide/email-settings.md) for details.

## Permissions

Your role controls whether you can see and use the **Export / Import** dropdown. Export access can be permission-gated per data type. If you do not see the export options described here, ask an administrator to review your permissions.
